Primordial Era: Unparalleled Comprehension, Starting from Becoming a Disciple of the Three Immortals

Chapter 74 Reincarnation, Chen Qing Builds the Underworld.

Seeing that the Styx Ancestor had agreed, Houtu glanced at Chen Qing, her eyes showing a solemn expression.

"Fellow Daoist Styx, Fellow Daoist Chen Qing, I will now begin to establish the place of reincarnation and set up the cycle of reincarnation for all the myriad races of the primordial world."

After saying this, Houtu took a step forward.

"By the Great Dao above, I, a descendant of Pangu and the ancestral witch Houtu of the Wu tribe, am moved by the suffering of all living beings in the primordial world after death. I am willing to sacrifice myself to open up the six realms of reincarnation and find a glimmer of hope for all living beings in the primordial world."

Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, played a trick here. Instead of reporting to the Heavenly Dao, she reported to the Great Dao, thus bypassing the Heavenly Dao.

While there are advantages to doing this, there are also significant risks involved.

If the Great Dao does not respond, then Houtu will face a crisis from the Heavenly Dao.

After Houtu finished speaking, a pair of eyes appeared in the primordial world.

Those eyes were filled with cold indifference, devoid of any emotion.

When those eyes appeared in the primordial world, all the saints and all living beings felt a chill run down their spines. Even the most powerful saints felt a cold shiver down their spines.

Chen Qing knew that this was the Great Dao responding to the Ancestral Witch Houtu.

His eyes were fixed on Houtu, and then a voice from the sky said "Approved".

The word "approved" spread throughout the entire primordial world, reaching the ears of all living beings in the primordial world.

As soon as the word "accurate" was uttered, the body of the Ancestral Witch Houtu began to shatter.

As Houtu, the ancestral witch, was about to leave, she looked at Chen Qing.

"Fellow Daoist Chen Qing, the Six Paths of Reincarnation have been opened, but construction is needed. I can hand over the right to build the Six Paths of Reincarnation to you, but you must preserve the last glimmer of hope for my Wu Clan. I hope Fellow Daoist Chen Qing will not fail my trust."

In the primordial world, the Dao Ancestor Hongjun, who had merged with the Heavenly Dao, appeared here, along with the Six Sages of the Heavenly Dao and all the great supernatural beings.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun, the Six Sages of the Primordial Era, the Great Divine Power of the Demon Race, the Ancestral Witch of the Witch Race, and other Great Divine Power of the Primordial Era rogue cultivators all appeared on the Blood Sea Land.

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed.

The decision to entrust the establishment of reincarnation to Chen Qing was something that no one could understand.

Chen Qing is a disciple of the Jie Sect and a grand-disciple of the Sage Tongtian. He is not a member of the Wu Clan. When the Ancestral Witch Houtu entrusted this construction responsibility to Chen Qing, it was as if she had entrusted it to the Sage Tongtian.

All the sages had their own thoughts and looked at Chen Qing.

However, because the Great Dao was watching, no one dared to speak or make a move.

Just kidding, try making a move and see if the Great Dao will destroy you.

Even someone as powerful as Hongjun Daozu is utterly powerless before the Great Dao.

Chen Qing listened to Houtu Zuwu's words and bowed deeply to her.

"Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, rest assured, if the Witch Clan is defeated, I will find a way out for them."

Houtu smiled with relief upon hearing this, and then looked at the group of ancestral witches.

"Dear brothers and sisters, Houtu will take her leave first. I have left a contingency plan in the Ancestral Witch Hall of the tribe. Fellow Daoist Chen Qing knows this. You can seek him out after this matter is over."

Upon hearing this, the group of ancestral witches had tears in their eyes and their faces were filled with sorrow.

"Little sister, how could you bear to leave us?"

However, no matter how the other eleven called out, they could not stop the disintegration of Houtu Zuwu's body.

Houtu, the ancestral witch, disintegrated, forming a dark space. The space was dark and cold, and at its center, a large rotating disc was spinning.

The large spinning wheel had six tracks, but they weren't displayed.

Seeing this, Chen Qing stepped forward and entered the dark space.

All living beings in the primordial world stared at him, their eyes filled with longing.

"I, Chen Qing, a disciple of the Jie Sect, a grand-disciple of the Tongtian Sect Master, and a third or fourth generation disciple of the Daoist sect, have been granted permission by the Ancestral Witch Houtu to build the Underworld on her behalf. I hope the Great Dao will approve."

After Chen Qing finished speaking, he stared at Chen Qing with his eyes for a while, and then uttered a "yes".

Hearing the word "approved," Chen Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he was appointed by the Ancestral Witch Houtu, he was useless without the approval of the Great Dao.

Now that the Great Dao has approved it, construction can begin.

"The land of reincarnation was created by the ancestral witch Houtu, and the ancestral witch Houtu is revered as the inheritor of the Dao and the model of the Empress Houtu."

"When the cycle of rebirth begins, there will be six realms of reincarnation, with three good realms and three evil realms."

"The three good paths are the path of the gods, the path of humans, and the path of the Asuras."

The three evil realms are the hell realm, the hungry ghost realm, and the animal realm.

"After all living beings die, they will naturally be reborn in the cycle of reincarnation. As for which path they will be reborn into, it is determined by the good and evil they did in their previous life."

"When the land of reincarnation was first formed, there was an emperor, the Great Emperor of Fengdu."

"The Emperor of Fengdu is in charge of all matters in the Land of Reincarnation. He is the supreme ruler of the Land of Reincarnation, and his residence is Fengdu Ghost City."

After saying this, he conjured an avatar from within his body.

"Fellow Daoist, I trouble you to assume the position of Emperor of Fengdu."

After Chen Qing finished speaking, his avatar agreed, and a pillar of light descended from the horizon, causing his aura to rise steadily. Before long, he had reached the peak of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm.

Chen Qing's incarnation wore a nine-dragon robe, a flat-topped crown, and gold-embroidered boots, exuding an aura of majesty.

"I am the Great Emperor of Fengdu."

After he finished speaking, a ghost city appeared, with the words "Fengdu" inscribed on it.

The Emperor of Fengdu headed towards this ghost city and took control of it.

The people of the prehistoric world were completely dumbfounded by Chen Qing's actions; they couldn't believe that this was possible.

He looked at the eleven Ancestral Witches and then began to announce the appointments.

Chen Qing looked at everyone, a determined look in his eyes.

"Beneath the Great Emperor of Fengdu, there are five Ghost Emperors from all directions to assist him."

After Chen Qing finished speaking, he looked at the eleven Ancestral Witches.

"The Land of Reincarnation was opened up by the Ancestral Witch Houtu. The Five Ghost Emperors should be appointed by the Witch Clan. We request that all fellow Daoists allocate one of their avatars to serve as the Five Ghost Emperors."

After Chen Qing finished speaking, the eleven ancestral witches exchanged glances and directly selected five great witches from their respective tribes to serve as the five Ghost Emperors.

"Below the Five Ghost Emperors, there are Ten Kings, known as the Ten Yama Kings."

Chen Qing looked at the eleven Ancestral Witches, who exchanged glances and then selected ten top-tier witch generals from their respective tribes to serve as the Ten Kings of Hell.

Ten beams of light descended, propelling his cultivation level to the Quasi-Saint realm.

His appearance also changed, and he became wearing a royal robe, a royal crown, and golden boots.

"Beneath the Ten Kings of Hell, there are Ten Great Underworld Marshals."

"The Ten Great Yin Marshals shall be selected from among the myriad races of the primordial world, with the Great Dao Sect selecting suitable individuals to assume these roles."

After Chen Qing finished speaking, ten people appeared, who were the most suitable candidates for the Ten Great Yin Marshals.

"Below the Ten Great Underworld Marshals, there must be Soul-Catching Messengers."

The underworld should have underworld generals, underworld soldiers, and twelve ancestral witch tribes, each contributing 100,000 troops to form a vast army of the underworld.

This was Chen Qing's way of preserving the Wu Clan. Even if the Wu Clan were to be defeated, the existence of a 1.2 million-strong Wu Clan army would effectively protect the defeated members of the Wu Clan.

In the cycle of reincarnation, there is a gate to the underworld; all who enter the gate to the underworld are dead spirits.

Beyond the Gates of Hell lies the River of Oblivion.

The River of Oblivion is impassable to even a wild goose; a messenger from the River of Oblivion must guide it across.

Beyond the River of Oblivion lies the Road to the Underworld.

There are no living beings on the road to the underworld, only the souls of the dead.

Those who pass through the Yellow Springs will find the Bridge of Helplessness.

Beyond the Bridge of Helplessness, there lies the Terrace of Longing for Home.

On the Terrace of Longing for Home, there is a Three-Life Stone, from which one can see past and present lives.

Behind the Terrace of Longing for Home, there must be a Bewitching Palace.

Within the Hall of Bewitching Souls, one can travel to the mortal realm to seek a dream once.

Behind the Hall of Bewitching Souls lies the abode of the Ten Kings of Hell.

The Ten Kings of Hell will decide which realm you will be reborn into.

Behind the Ten Kings of Hell lies the place of reincarnation in the six realms.

The cycle of reincarnation judges good and evil, and there are eighteen levels of hell. Which level of hell one goes to depends on the sins committed in one's previous life.

In the realm of reincarnation, there are the underworld and the city of the unjustly dead, places where ghosts reside.

"Eighteen levels of hell, each with its own ruler."

After saying this, he selected eighteen more people.

"The Netherworld should have a Lord, and the City of the Wrongfully Dead should have a Lord."

Every time Chen Qing mentioned something, something else would appear.

By the time Chen Qing finished speaking, the entire Reincarnation Land had been completely transformed and was now fully completed.
